Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000009951573
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severi ty of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. Information necessary to service t he system safely is included in the SR and SB section of
this Service Manual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoper ative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipm ent on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identi fied by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Un it or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or el ectric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery and wait at least three mi nutes before performing any service.

Foam RepairINFOID:0000000009464966
During factory assembly, foam insulators are installed in certain body panels and locations around the vehicle.
Use the following procedure(s) to replace any factory-installed foam insulators.
URETHANE FOAM APPLICATIONS
Use commercially available Urethane foam for sealant (foam material) repair of material used on vehicle.
Read instructions on product for fill procedures.
FILL PROCEDURES
Example of foaming agent filling operation procedure:
1. Fill procedures after installation of service part.
a. Eliminate foam material remaining on vehicle side.
b. Clean area after eliminating form insulator and foam material.
c. Install service part.
d. Insert nozzle into hole (A) near fill area and fill foam material (1) or fill enough to close gap with the service
part.
2. Fill procedures before installation of service part:
a. Eliminate foam material remaining on vehicle side.
b. Clean area after eliminating foam insulator and foam material.
c. Fill with enough foam material on the wheelhouse outer side to close the gap with the service part while
avoiding the flange area. 3M™ Au

CORROSION PROTECTION
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009464969
To provide improved corrosion prevention, the follo wing anti-corrosive measures have been implemented in
NISSAN production plants. When repairi ng or replacing body panels, it is necessary to use the same anti-cor-
rosive measures.
Anti-Corrosive Precoated Steel (Galvannealed Steel)
To improve repairability and corrosion resistance, a new type of anti-
corrosive precoated steel sheet has been adopted replacing conven-
tional zinc-coated steel sheet.
Galvannealed steel is electroplated and heated to form Zinc-iron
alloy, which provides excellent and long term corrosion resistance
with cationic electrodeposition primer.
Nissan Genuine Service Parts are fabricated from galvannealed steel. Therefore, it is recommended that
GENUINE NISSAN PARTS or equivalent be used for panel replacement to maintain the anti-corrosive perfor-
mance built into the vehicle at the factory.
Phosphate Coating Treatment and Cationic Electrodeposition Primer
A phosphate coating treatment and a cationic electrodeposit ion primer, which provide excellent corrosion pro-
tection, are employed on all body components.
CAUTION:
Confine paint removal during weld ing operations to an absolute
minimum.
Nissan Genuine Service Parts are also treated in the same manner. Therefore, it is recommended that GENU-
INE NISSAN PARTS or equivalent be used for panel repl acement to maintain anti-corrosive performance built
into the vehicle at the factory.
Anti-Corrosive WaxINFOID:0000000009464970
To improve corrosion resistance, anti-corrosive wax is applied inside the body sill and inside other closed sec-
tions. Accordingly, when replacing these parts, be sure to apply anti-corrosive wax to the appropriate areas of
the new parts. Select an excellent anti-corrosive wax which will penetrate after application and has a long shelf
life.

• Front pillar butt joint can be determined anywhere within shaded area as shown. The best location for the butt joint is at position (A)
due to the construction of the vehicle. Refer to the front pillar sec-
tion.
• Determine cutting position and record distance from the locating indent. Use this distance when cutting the service part. Cut outer
front pillar over 60 mm above inner front pillar cut position.
• Prepare a cutting jig to make outer pillar easier to cut. Also, this will permit service part to be accurately cut at joint position.
• An example of cutting operation using a cutting jig is as follows.
1. Position of outer pillar (A) on cut line and inner pillar
2. Align cutting line with notch on jig. Clamp jig to pillar.
3. Cut outer pillar along groove of jig. (At position A)
4. Remove jig and cut remaining portions.
5. Cut inner pillar in the same manner.
